Question

Brianna charges $15, $30,45 and $60 babysitting 1 2 3 and 4 respectively is the relationship between the amount charged and the number of hours proportion? If so find a unit rate if not explain why not

Answer 1

Answer:

• proportional
• $15 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We aren't told what the 1, 2, 3, 4 represent. If it is number of children, then the question makes no sense. We have to assume it is probably hours.

  dollars/hours = 15/1 = 30/2 = 45/3 = 60/4 = $15/h

The rate is a constant, so amount is proportional to hours.
